Wish List For ciV

[Daddy-O]

It's never too early to start is it?

cIV is out. People have a taste of it. What would you like to see in ciV - that's Civilization 5.

I would like a real 3 D globe.

The list...

A 3D globe
server-based multiplayer platform link
Concubines in throne room link
Blonds as resource link
More combat choices including guerrilla link
Retro Civ2 option link
Improved Civlopedia link
The Urban Ranger Civ-O-Matic - modding sans coding link
Geography based game play link

I would like them to use a real server-based multiplayer platform, similar to battle.net from Blizzard. Battle.net actually WORKS from a connectivity perspective, and is one of the big reasons why Diablo, Starcraft, and Warcraft III are so popular and are still being heavily played to this day.

Lamespy is a copout and will never work properly with the 5000+ different firewall configurations we are using. The choice of Lamespy as the multiplayer vehicle is one of the very few disappointments I have about Civ 4.

I want to be able to play as the Arabs and have my own harem of concubines. If needs be I should be allowed to send my armies abroad to find some nice blonde ones.

Differnt kinds of combat. Right now it's about nothing but conventional combat which differes greatly from how the world is right now.
I'm talking how the US uses conventional and then there's the "terrorist" kind. Gurrilla (sp?) warfare needs to make it in too.

It would matter how you manage your nation. For instance it might be hard to use non-conventional warfare if you're not the underdog. Blablabla...

Not to promote terrorism or anything lolz.

Here, here! Hooray for MasterDave! Very good point.
Battle.net is pretty robust. No question about it.

I think ciV is going to suck. I'm not going to buy it. I'm waiting for ciVI

[vee4473]

has anyone ever played The Third World War?
I played it on the sega cd, and it has fond memories, but until I can recall it correctly I can't say it should be the model.

[Rasputin]

I want it to look and feel just like Civ 2

[Shogun Gunner]

why not play civ2 then?

[Aro]

Let me see...
cIV is civ 4 and ciV is (will be) civ 5?

I can't tell the difference...

Anyway, I want a REAL Civilopedia.

i still do....


i think they should end the prolification of sequels and make a new game..

[Urban Ranger]

Make my own civ...

Pick two traits from a list, and then pick some starting techs from a list. Finally, make up a list of city names.

Make it so that you can save the civ and play it over and over again.

[Daddy-O]

You can't do that in 4 with all the modding they bragged about?

[Urban Ranger]

I should be able to do that without messing with the XML files and such.
